Montreal Estate Planning

To many people, estate planning is a task best left for tomorrow. But what if tomorrow doesn’t come? No one wants to think about their own death, and planning for it may be the last thing on your mind, but the reality is that the sooner you take care of estate planning, the better.

Estate planning is about more than writing a will. It's about deciding and documenting your wishes about yourself, your loved ones and your possessions. Deciding which family heirloom goes to whom is one thing, but letting your loved ones know what your wishes are in the event that you find yourself in a coma is quite another. Don't let your loved ones agonize over whether or not to keep you on life support. Write a living will telling them exactly how you feel about it.

Estate planning also involves deciding what will happen to any child under your care in the event of your death. This takes quite a bit of thought and planning: finding the right person to take care of your children is the most important thing in the world, and it is no small task. It is also a big decision for whoever you do choose to take on the task, so you need to consider the fact that they also will need time to reflect on the matter.

Thomas R Ohlgren CPA understands that estate planning can be an emotional and difficult task. This is why we aim to make it as simple and as pain-free as possible, while making sure that every last detail has been taken care of. During our initial meeting, we will explain the different components involved and provide you with a list of questions that you should review, think about and answer in your own time. Once this is done, we will meet again to complete the legal documents. Making changes to these documents as the years go by is a very simple process.

You deserve to live a worry-free life knowing that your assets and your loved ones will be taken care of once you are gone. If you live in the greater Elk River area, give us a call today to schedule your estate planning appointment. You will not only be relieved to know that the task is done, you will also be confident that your last wishes will be respected.
